Just a bank

1
This is the bank I use for my current account. They don’t do anything for me I know friends who get offers and other things fro m their bank I don’t get anything like this. Their just a bank. Reviewed on: 8th January 2019

Great service

5
Great service with a really easy to use app Reviewed on: 6th January 2019

Awful day to day online banking

3
I am very computer literate and am always on social media but the hsbc app has been a real bone of contention for years. The user interface is fine but it shouldn’t be so difficult to access your OWN bank account. Since upgrading my phone I have gone back to a 3 step manual sign in which in this day is so laggy. Last resort is calling to speak to someone who just does not get it. Really disappointing HSBC! Reviewed on: 6th January 2019

Good reliable service

HSBC have always been a good bank although the interest rates for savers are not anything special. Reviewed on: 4th January 2019

Reliable

5
I’ve been with this bank for over 20 years and I’ve had no problems with them - always very welcoming either in the bank itself or via the telephone. Would definitely recommend. Reviewed on: 4th January 2019

Great customer service

5
Local branch, great customer service, always polite and friendly, and they once rang me when concerned about unusual activity in my account very quickly after it happened (was nothing in the end) but nice to know they were on the case Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019
